Hi Don, The Metrologic ms3780 scanner will work continuesly if you put it in to its stand. If your holding it in your hand, you have to press the larger button and hold it in to make it scan. I don't know why this is, but it seems to work much better in the stand then when I hold it in my hand.

How do you activate the scan? There are two controls on the unit, one which is a bar-shaped control and the other is more of a small button toward the head of the scanner. We don't have much at all in the way of sighted assistance around here, so would appreciate knowing just what these controls are. I did get it to scan one can of soup, but not sure how I did it and haven't been able to get it to see a barcode since. I'm sure it's all operator error or ignorance, take your pick. <smile> Thanks, Don If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
